2000 journal article

Morpho-physiological predictors of ovulatory success in captive striped bass (Morone saxatilis)

AQUACULTURE, 188(1-2), 133–146.

By: G. Weber n, W. King n, R. Clark  n, R. Hodson n & C. Sullivan n

author keywords: Morone; IGF-I; oocyte maturation; spawning; broodstock
TL;DR: This study evaluates morpho-physiological characters as predictors of ovulatory success in cultured striped bass, Morone saxatilis, that could be used by farmers to select females for induced spawning. (via Semantic Scholar)

1999 journal article

Annual reproductive cycle of the common snook: Endocrine correlates of maturation

TRANSACTIONS OF THE AMERICAN FISHERIES SOCIETY, 128(3), 436–445.

By: S. Roberts  n, L. Jackson n, W. King n, R. Taylor*, W. Grier n & C. Sullivan n

TL;DR: During the summer months, levels of the sex steroid hormones estradiol-17β (E2) and testosterone (T) in females were significantly elevated above basal winter values and mean gonadosomatic index (GSI) was also significantly elevated in females during summer. (via Semantic Scholar)

1997 journal article

A receptor for the oocyte maturation-inducing hormone 17 alpha,20 beta,21-trihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one on ovarian membranes of striped bass

BIOLOGY OF REPRODUCTION, 56(1), 266–271.

By: W. King n, S. Ghosh *, P. Thomas * & C. Sullivan n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bass; Binding, Competitive; Cell Membrane / metabolism; Cortodoxone / analogs & derivatives; Cortodoxone / metabolism; Female; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Hydroxyprogesterones / metabolism; Kinetics; Oocytes / growth & development; Ovary / ultrastructure; Receptors, Cell Surface / metabolism
TL;DR: Findings indicate that 20beta-S is the oocyte maturation-inducing steroid hormone in striped bass, although it is only a weak inducer of oocyte GVBD in vitro. (via Semantic Scholar)

1995 journal article

Involvement of gonadal steroids in final oocyte maturation of white perch (Morone americana) and white bass (M-chrysops): In vivo and in vitro studies

FISH PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY, 14(6), 489–500.

By: W. King n, D. Berlinsky n & C. Sullivan n

author keywords: gonad; maturation; Morone; oocyte; ovary; perciform; steroidogenesis; steroids; teleost
TL;DR: A role for DHP and 20β-S in the control of FOM in white perch and white bass is indicated and none of several other structurally-related steroids tested were effective within a physiological range of concentrations. (via Semantic Scholar)

1994 journal article

HORMONAL-REGULATION OF FINAL MATURATION OF STRIPED BASS OOCYTES IN-VITRO

GENERAL AND COMPARATIVE ENDOCRINOLOGY, 96(2), 223–233.

By: W. King n, P. Thomas  n & C. Sullivan n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bass / physiology; Bucladesine / pharmacology; Chorionic Gonadotropin / physiology; Colforsin / pharmacology; Dihydrotestosterone / analogs & derivatives; Dihydrotestosterone / metabolism; Estradiol / metabolism; Female; Hormones / physiology; Hydroxyprogesterones / metabolism; In Vitro Techniques; Oocytes / growth & development; Steroids / metabolism; Structure-Activity Relationship; Testosterone / metabolism
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that FOM in striped bass is induced by gonadotropin-mediated production of a delta 4 steroid through an adenylate-cyclase pathway which requires protein synthesis. (via Semantic Scholar)

PLASMA-LEVELS OF GONADAL-STEROIDS DURING FINAL OOCYTE MATURATION OF STRIPED BASS, MORONE-SAXATILIS L

GENERAL AND COMPARATIVE ENDOCRINOLOGY, 95(2), 178–191.

By: W. King n, P. Thomas  n, R. Harrell n, R. Hodson n & C. Sullivan n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bass / metabolism; Chorionic Gonadotropin / pharmacology; Cortodoxone / analogs & derivatives; Cortodoxone / blood; Domperidone / pharmacology; Estradiol / blood; Female; Gonadal Steroid Hormones / blood; Gonadotropins / pharmacology; Hydroxyprogesterones / blood; Oocytes / growth & development; Oocytes / metabolism; Ovulation / physiology; Radioimmunoassay; Reproduction / drug effects; Testosterone / blood
TL;DR: Results indicate that striped bass follow the typical profile of changing plasma steroid levels seen in other teleosts during FOM, with a clear shift from C18 and C19 steroids to C21 steroids, and suggest that both DHP and 20 beta-S, both potent inducers of striped bass FOM in vitro, may play a role in regulating FOM.
